But I thought Resident Evil 5 took on a new life as a co-op game. There's lots of instances where you support each other in distinct ways - there's a bit where you're sniping from across the road to clear a path through a building for your partner, another where you're underground and one person holds a torch while the other fends off waves of enemies. Had a lot of fun with it.

Madden only really works multiplayer if you're both on the same team or if you both have different screens. Otherwise you can see which plays the other player is about to call which defeats the object a bit.
